PGPLOT is a Fortran subroutine package for drawing simple scientific
|
||
|
graphs on various graphics display devices. It was originally developed
|
||
|
for use with astronomical data reduction programs in the Caltech
|
||
|
Astronomy Department.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It consists of a library of routines that are Fortran- and C-callable.
|
||
|
There are routines that are device-dependent, in that they can produce
|
||
|
output for various terminals, image displays, dot-matrix printers,
|
||
|
laser printers, and pen plotters. Common file formats supported include
|
||
|
PostScript and GIF.
|
||
|
|
||
|
PGPLOT is not public-domain software. However, it is freely available
|
||
|
for non-commercial use. The source code and documentation are
|
||
|
copyrighted by California Institute of Technology, and may not be
